Gray matter structural covariance networks patterns associated with autopsy-confirmed LATE-NC compared to Alzheimer's disease pathology
CONCLUSIONS: This study showed different SCN patterns in the cases with LATE-NC, AD, and AD+LATE-NC, and indicated the network disconnection mechanism underlying these three neuropathological progressions. Further, SCN may serve as an effective biomarker to distinguish between different types of dementia.PMID:37977431 | DOI:10.1016/j.nbd.2023.106354 (Source: Neurobiology of Disease)

Trajectories of CSF and plasma biomarkers across Alzheimer's disease continuum: Disease staging by NF-L, p-tau181, and GFAP
Neurobiol Dis. 2023 Nov 15:106356. doi: 10.1016/j.nbd.2023.106356. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCSF-to-plasma transition will open new avenues for molecular phenotyping of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Here we evaluated a panel of AD biomarkers in matched CSF and plasma samples across the AD continuum, from preclinical AD to dementia. The aims were to: 1) compare diagnostic performance of the two biofluids, 2) evaluate trajectories of the biomarkers along AD progression. We analyzed CSF and plasma Aβ42/40, p-tau181, p-tau231, t-tau, NF-L, GFAP, UCHL-1 and CSF SNAP-25 in a cohort (n = 173) of preclinical AD, MCI-AD, AD dement...

Polygenic risk scores for Alzheimer's disease in relation to cognitive change: A representative sample from the general population followed over 16  years
CONCLUSION: We found that genetic predisposition of AD predicted cognitive decline among 70-year-olds followed over 16 years, regardless of dementia status, while polygenic risk for general cognitive performance did not.PMID:37977433 | DOI:10.1016/j.nbd.2023.106357 (Source: Neurobiology of Disease)

Projection-defined median raphe Pet < sup > + < /sup > subpopulations are diversely implicated in seizure
Neurobiol Dis. 2023 Nov 15:106358. doi: 10.1016/j.nbd.2023.106358. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe raphe nuclei, the primary resource of forebrain 5-HT, play an important but heterogeneous role in regulating subcortical excitabilities. Fundamental circuit organizations of different median raphe (MR) subsystems are far from completely understood. In the present study, using cell-specific viral tracing, Ca2+ fiber photometry and epilepsy model, we map out the forebrain efferent and afferent of different MR Pet+ subpopulations and their divergent roles in epilepsy. We found that PetMR neurons send both collateral and parall...

Regulatory T cells: A suppressor arm in post-stroke immune homeostasis
Neurobiol Dis. 2023 Nov 10:106350. doi: 10.1016/j.nbd.2023.106350. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe activation of the immune system and the onset of pro- and anti-inflammatory responses play crucial roles in the pathophysiological processes of ischaemic stroke (IS). CD4+ regulatory T (Treg) cells is the main immunosuppressive cell population that is studied in the context of peripheral tolerance, autoimmunity, and the development of chronic inflammatory diseases. In recent years, more studies have focused on immune modulation after IS, and Treg cells have been demonstrated to be essential in the remission of inflammation,...

Integrative human and murine multi-omics: Highlighting shared biomarkers in the neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses
Neurobiol Dis. 2023 Nov 10:106349. doi: 10.1016/j.nbd.2023.106349. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNeuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (NCL) is a group of neurodegenerative disorders whose molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown. Omics approaches are among the methods that generate new information on modifying factors and molecular signatures. Moreover, omics data integration can address the need to progressively expand knowledge around the disease and pinpoint specific proteins to promote as candidate biomarkers. In this work, we integrated a total of 62 proteomic and transcriptomic datasets originating from humans and mice,...
